Title: What type of gambling has been more lucrative for you in the long term?
Post by: pereira4 on January 23, 2016, 06:06:21 PM
We gave various modalities in gambling

1) Slots
2) Dice
3) Roulette
4) Poker
5) Betting (usually sports betting)
6) Blacklist

Those are the dominating "disciplines". If anyone wants to say their own, then drop your comment and explain what has been the most lucrative and how much money have you've made thus far.

For me it has been sport betting. While I lost everything I put on dice and casino games, I did a profit on my bets. You can follow my "career" here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1325135.0.

True, I added it right now. I should actually have made a poll so people can vote, but I don't think I can create now a poll within an already existing thread so people will need to state it in a comment by themselves.

No, you still can. That's in the upper right corner of the OP. This will be a pleasure for me to vote in your poll :).

You should add binary options to the list. During the market, they can be a very easy way of Gambling compared to Slots or Dice.

Definitely number 5 (sport bets). Reason is this is kind of forecast, prediction by using actual stats and stats from the past.
So to make some money here is more easy than winning in dice or slots for instance. However it also depends how much risk you're willing to take and which teams, favorites or underdogs, you choose.

Sports betting. That's not about pure luck, but about "educated guessing", with some unpredictable elements (actual performance on the given event) what makes it interesting. Actually I don't consider sports betting as gambling.
I've made a lot more on betting than on any other forms of gambling together.

I think that you should not gamble in the long term, that is more like an addiction.
However, sports betting seems to be the most safe, if you are good.

For me, sports betting is profitabel in the long term if do you have a good analisys about football
Dice and other just need a luck and you can't get earn for the long term.

Sports betting is risky like any other kind of gambling.
However for me it's the most fun and i therefore only do sports bets.

I think sports betting should be one can play for long term and still can make some profits.

In the long run there was really only two games that could be lucrative in the long run. Poker and sports betting have done me good, however i cant give exact number but i am in profit just last year as side bets around 3k. In the past i have lost that on roulette. More than likely over all games i am even but would have been in profit had i focused on the main two i mentioned.

I most often use the soccer betting to gamble. I never profited 0:03 BTC day in livebet. I most like to bet under and over goals

Only poker has been lucerative for me, but imo that is not real gambling.

Poker involves a lot of skill as well. Ofcourse you need to hit your cards, but you can calculate the odds you get and bet accordingly.

Other gambling games depend purely on luck (except maybe sports betting), which make them non lucerative in the long term by definition.

For me it is also poker, ive built a decent bankroll and cashed out hundreds from basically nothing. Sports betting has also seemed to be profitable in the long run for myself. It seems that roulette and dice are the games in which I am more likely to walk away down a bit. Luckily, I don't play much dice anymore.

To jump to the conclusion,Spots Betting has been lucrative as nothing comparatively.I have won such unimaginable parley's with amazing bets with amounts as low as 0.01.Apart from the usual casinos and dice games,I really love playing arcade games such as this one here LuckyBtcCasiono (https://www.luckybtccasino.com/#arcade).But that just for entertainment purposes ,only thing I'm serious about is Sports bets as they are safe and I'm quite good at analyzing the events.

well we all here know that the only lucrative games here are poker and sportsbetting , if we don't want to count binary options
almost all of my btcs and online money are from poker , poker has been really good with me but I have spent more than 2 years trying to improve
sportsbetting has always been swingy with me , but I usually bet on sports just for gambling and I have a small profit in sports but this profit is so close to break even point

Sports bets are the way to go indeed.
Either you win big or you win a little bit of money.
This strategy has worked me for quite some time now.

At least you can analyse and choose on which match to bet for sports betting. For casino betting, you need to depend on your luck which will not be always with you. Sports betting is not easy unless you know a lot about the particular team.

I think sports betting has been the most profitable to me, I don't always win in the short run but long term I'm up quite a bit. Depending on your sports betting knowledge you can make a good bit of money.

This is probably answer closest to the truth. If you are skilled enough and know how to bet on sports you could potentially win a lot. Either placing your high bets on low odds games or trying parlay.
The second one game is probably Poker - but you have to even more skilled and knowledgeable about the game.

i have tried dice and it fail so badly in the long run, i also quite bad in prediciting matches so i follow those who forecast their bets. end up also quite bad in the red. the only more better off(but still loss) is soccer. i feel it is quite worth to bet on soccer cause u got 90min of excitment just for a bet and there is so many ways to bet on it that makes the match so interesting.
